Many of you surely wonders how to set time and configure the 1st & 2nd Analog Watch ? Okay, let’s go …
*( If your Citizen Ana Digi Temp is slowing down or runs too fast ? check – Adjusting Time ).
*( If you feel that your Citizen Ana Digi Temp incorrectly indicates the Temperature ? be sure and check – Adjusting Thermometer ).
*( If something else does not work properly – check the Damage Diagram below. This will let you know what’s wrong with your watch and how to remedy it ).
Before setting the Time – make sure that the watch Mode is Normal Time showing.
* Not confuse the Normal Time Mode with the Local Time Mode, which is quite similar, but it has a symbol “L” – which means – Local Time Mark ( picture above ).
1. Push “M” button to set normal time mode-hour : min : sec
2. A time setting mode is obtained by pushing “S” button for 1 second or longer. Please note that Seconds are now also Displayed Simultaneously and Independently on the 2nd Analog watch ( in the upper right corner of the watch ).
The hands of the Second Analog Watch now take over the role of the Digital Seconds Display. Although if you look closely, the analog and digital seconds indicators are showing different times for now – see picture below …
In my case, the Analog second hand shows 22 seconds and the Digital second hand now shows 07 seconds. Why is this happening ? and how to deal with it ? We’ll take care of it in a moment ! Ok, let’s move on …
From now the Digits Indicating The Seconds ( i.e. in the digital part – LCD display ) will start to blink ! – see picture below …
Another 10 seconds elapsed on my watch, now they show 17 seconds (on the LCD display) – they also flash – see picture below …
3. Resetting The Seconds to Zero ( on the LCD display )
At this point, if you want, you can Reset The Seconds – by comparing the readings on the watch with the time from your computer or another watch.
I, however, adjust my watches according to International Atomic Time * This is Highly Precise Time Scale that is Calculated using data from about 400 Atomic Clocks housed in 69 laboratories around the world. The Time it takes a Cesium-133 atom at the ground state to oscillates exactly 9,192,631,770 times per second !!! This accuracy should satisfy us…
The seconds in our Watch are reset to zero “00” with push of “R” button.
* Typically, ordinary wristwatches are rarely synchronized with the ( Global Atomic Clock ) to an accuracy of one single second. However, if you want to be super accurate – or you want to check if your watch is slowing down or runs too fast – then I recommend you to do this Reset !!!
The procedure for exactly what to do when your watch is running fast or slow is described in the Adjusting Time section.
The Analog watch A2 is also corrected synchronousyly witch the Digital watch ( because both watches are controlled by the same Microprocessor ). Although Seconds are counted Simultaneously on a Digital and Analog watch – as you already know, they can show different times!!! Everything is fine. We will correct The 2nd Analog watch later …
And after my adjustment, the “hour : minutes” section displays 5:51 .
6. To finish setting the digital time watch, press again the “S” button – then go on to set the mode 12/24 hour format.
Now when you press “S” button – hours and minutes – LCD Display – will blink ( just like on my watch – picture below ), this means that we can set 1st analog watch – A1 ( the picture above ) !!!
Push “R” button to precise correction 1st analog watch. One touch “R” button – moves only one step the minute and hour tips !
Finally we have almost everything set up, but we need to set 2nd analog watch – A2 and Synchronize the Analog and Digitaldisplay …
By pushing “S” button we get into the Synchronization.
Believe it or not this watch consists of more than 100 items. The Schematic Diagram ( 2200 x 2200 px ) shows the General Construction of the watch … READ MORE …

Hi
If you turn on alarm or chime (and is a visible symbol of AL or CHIME) and still no sound !
The damage to the watch (circut board or CPU) is really unlikely.
The cause may be the lack small coil springs in the middle of the watch.
It is very small, and can fall out because it is not attached to the watch.
The coil spring is the contact between the clock and speaker,also check the metal plate on the battery – should slightly protrude – like in this picture.
These two contacts – I pointed out in the picture – they supplied the alarm signal to the speaker !
Open the watch – If there are no springs – take it to a watchmaker, he should find replacement or browse the springs in another watch…I know that such Casio springs are of the same diameter – you only need to cut – because they are longer. Remember that it sticking out a bit like the picture.
Before closing back of the watch – coil springs should already touch the speaker.
If it still does not work, post respond comment or email to me. We’ll try to check the watch using the control points and voltmeter.

Dear Sir/Madam,
Good to meet you. I’m Ernest from Mcallen, USA. Really great site.
I have a Citizen Ana Digi Temp cal 8088, I never knew how to set the time and everything on the watch.
Now everything has become clear as day, thanks ..
I’m also very pleased.
Best regards
Just to point out the year range on this model only goes between 1980 and 2019.
I couldn’t set it to 2024 so had to find an identical calendar year which in this was 1996.
Hi Ian,
Thank you for your comment…
It is exactly as you say: i.e. – These first models from 1981-1990 have a calendar for the next 40 years (1980-2019). You did the right thing by moving the calendar back to 1996. This problem was described in detail in “Calendar until 2019 ? No problem !”
